Chicago Trade Shows
The Windy City
With 10 million residents, Chicago is considered to be the third largest city in the United States. In addition to the high residential population, Chicago also averages around 50 million visitors coming from both domestic and international locations yearly. With such a large population and high visitation from both domestic and international visitors, Chicago is a great location to exhibit at trade shows where global awareness is key.
Working with Foster on Your Chicago Trade Shows
It can be a little harrowing navigating a new city or venue, not to mention all the moving parts of exhibiting itself, from design to execution. We’re very familiar with Chicago, and we’d love to help you show off your brand in the city.
On-Site Service: We arrive days before the show and stay afterwards to take care of any needs or issues that arise.
Connections: Whether it be last-minute graphics, equipment rentals, or just a good restaurant recommendation, we have local ties to get the job done.
Relax: When you have a team behind you taking care of all aspects of your trade show booth, it takes the stress away and allows you to focus on what you’re there to do.
